Piano live recording (was: Live recording)

Hi all. I've just bought a Behringer UMC404HD audio interface and want to record live piano by placing two microphones one at the trebles and one at the bass. Is it better to use mono or omni directional microphones? In particular, which do you suggest between Bheringer B5 either Behringer C2

Multichannel audio listening (was: Live recording)

Hi all. After learning, some months ago, thanks to listers' help, how to live record into a multi channel audio file, I was wondering about the reverse problem: now I have my multi channel audio file, e.g. composed by three different channels. Is it possibile (I guess it is), and how?, to send
